Former Austin council member to campaign for proposed $720M mobility bond

Austin Mayor Steve Adler and supporters of the proposed $720 million mobility bond will have help from a friend—and Adler’s one-time foe on the campaign trail. Former Council Member Mike Martinez, who was Adler’s opponent in the 2014 mayoral election, endorsed the proposed bond Aug. 5 at a press conference in Austin City Hall and will campaign in favor of the proposition. “[The bond proposal] is in my mind not a perfect plan, but perfection should never be the enemy of good,” Martinez said. “It’s a sound, well-thought-out plan that’s built upon previous decisions that got us to this point.”
